Current report
Rental revenues increased due primarily to the consolidation of 10 East 53rd Street ($8.4 million) as a result of the agreement to acquire the partner's interest in the joint venture during the first quarter of 2024, partially offset by a lower contribution from our Same-Store Properties due primarily to increased vacancy at 555 West 57th Street ($2.5 million).

Interest income from real estate loans held by consolidated securitization vehicles
Current report
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we acquired securities in CMBS securitization trusts that resulted in consolidation of the trusts on our financial statements. The amounts recorded include our interest income as well as the interest income associated with CMBS positions owned by third parties, which is offset by the amounts recorded in Interest expense on senior obligations of consolidated securitization vehicles. As a result, the net impact is limited to the interest income on the CMBS securities we own directly and not the consolidated interest income and interest expense. We did not hold any investments in CMBS securitization trusts that resulted in consolidation during the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Current report
Other income increased primarily due to higher management, leasing, and construction management fee income ($10.2 million) and increased special servicing fees ($1.2 million) during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023.
Current report
Interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs, net of interest income, increased primarily due to a decrease in interest capitalization in connection with properties that are under development or redevelopment ($15.4 million), and higher interest expense from the revolving credit facility ($3.0 million) due to an increase in the outstanding balance during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. These decreases were offset by the repayment of unsecured corporate term loans ($5.8 million) in the third quarter of 2023.
